The Machineries of Joy by Peter Finch

Machineries of Joy is the vibrant, uproarious, pointed and wildly entertaining new collection from renowned Cardiff-based performance poet, Peter Finch. Known for his inventive and multi-faceted formal strategies and his best-selling psycho-geographical peregrinations around Wales and the USA, Finch gives us the world in all its contemporary complexity.
Peter Finch is a poet, performer, psychogeographer and literary entrepreneur living in Cardiff. He has published numerous books of poetry and prose, most recently his two-volume Collected Poems (Seren Books, 2022), and a memoir ‘The Literary Business’ (Parthian Books, 2025). He is the Series Editor of the long-running Seren Real Series of off-beat guides, which includes his own four volumes on ‘Real Cardiff’.
